Is anyone else getting tired of seeing that shit on TV, the net, and in print? How many damn lists need to be compiled? A great way to use stock footage, but other than that...useless.

Totally hearing ya, Sage. That shit is all over the TV in the UK - except we get top 50 lists!! For example, The Top 50 worst TV moments (I swear to God I am not making this up).

Yes. It's fun to know people's opinions (in some cases), but it's offensive for magazines and networks to get together a bunch of schmucks and pretend they're dispensing something more legitimate. I can't imagine why people can be interested by this nonsense without some proper context for it all.

In general, though, I sort of wish people would stop focusing on the whole damn "list" aspect. As if their limited exposure to the world (and memory of the world) is able to discern the "top" number of anything. The focus of ranking should be why you like what you like since that's more meaningful than a number.
